About three weeks ago, I came home from work to find my eight bottle wine refrigerator’s digital readout flashing 92 degrees. Sure enough, upon opening the unit, the bottles were warm to the touch, and several showed signs of seepage. The unit was working properly when I left for the office around 8AM, so the bottles were not exposed to extreme temperatures for any more than 10 hours. However, all of the bottles showed varying levels of seepage. I’ve since consumed seven of the eight bottles with varying results. You’ll find a list of the bottles below, as well as some information on their condition upon being removed from the refrigerator. Any care to guess how the bottles showed upon opening?

That sounds horrible! How did it get to 92 degrees?? My guess is that some of those wines were probably not as good as you may have thought they would be, at the appropriate temperature… but I’m interested to know… Maybe the Russian River Syrah held up? I like your blog, and would love to have your opinion on mine… Thanks!
